Polo Grounds (the dealer, not the stadium)

A friend of mine asked me about my experience buying from "The Polo Grounds", his ads are in SCD. The ads offer mostly high end 50s to 70s cards so I haven't bought anything from him but thought maybe someone here has.

The question is how are his grading standards? When he lists a card as NM, are they? Are the MT cards Mint? You get the idea.

In accordance with the law of averages there will be those with good and bad experiences but lets not get into a heated good guy/bad guy debate. You can post here or just click my email link and tell me what your experience was.

and was dissatisfied, but that was some time ago.

The prices looked good. I purchased six cards, all of which were overgraded. The worst was a Rosen/Kiner 51 Topps panel that had a back wrinkle in Kiner.
